I'm searching Basso Petti

[suanj]

the WWI draft registration card is right... but because we cannot find other records, thinking a mistaken name.. the above mentioned is probable as first name... birthyear... just a suggestion... maybe we can find more next time.. regards, suanj

[daveferro]

Thank you, Suanj

I know he will be found; with all the good people here it's a matter of short time.

Dave

I sent your website address to an artist friend

I’VE FOUND HIM!!!

I’m grateful to all the member and the owners of this forum.
A special thank to:
Suanj for help in the Italian search. She said me WHERE to search.
Vj for the finding of the draft card of my ancestor.
Daveferro for the information about Wayne Wheel Works and the excluding of the mine accident.

A little summary for whose interested
My Great-Grandfather leave his city (Termoli, CB, Italy), his wife and his two years old child in the December 1912 to find a better life in the U.S. and to economically sustain his family.
He went in New York City (New York Passenger List and Special Inquiry) and he worked in New York State for some years.
In the 1917 he was in Newark, Wayne, NY where he worked as labourer in Wayne Wheel Works .
In November 1th 1919 at 07,30 AM he died, for an accidental explosion, maybe in the same Wayne Wheel Works
He was buried in Newark.

The key information were detained in the archives in Termoli. They are in a death record. It’s practically a translation of the original death record written in Newark in the 1919.
There were three great difficulties to find the Italian death record . The first was there where some errors in the document. For example for the Italian law Basso Petti born in 11/17/1885 is not Basso Petti born in 12/16/1884 (wrong date). The identify of the exact record and its right understanding is possible with the WWI Draft Card found by Vj
In Termoli the old archives are not digitalized or microfilmed. So every search is manual and hard. This was the second difficulty.
Overall, as third trouble, the document was recorded very late: in the 1930, 11 years after the death. So the file was in the books of 1930 not in them of 1919, the real year. Thanks to Suanj I’ve found it

This is a site that has many upstate NY newspapers that are searchable. Mrs. Gilmore at the Seymour Library History Room told me about Tom Tryniski, who was scanning the bound newspapers there. He prefers that sites use the opening link, which has a movie running in an oval (this time: Amos and Andy). Click Enter to get to the search page, wlhich also has a chat/video frame and link to Fulton NY photos. You can listen to an old radio program while you search (tonight: The Shadow).

Old Fulton Opening Page

To go directly to the search page, use:

Old Fulton Search Page

The dates are 1832 to 1995 and added to every Saturday. I have searched this for Basso Petti, but did not find anything yet. I might not be searching in the proper way.

There are some problems with the search date gadget (it goes from 1990 to 2012, rather than to the past) and I have e-mailed him about this.

If you click on FAQ_HELP_INDEX, a scrollable help file will appear in the right pane. Note that there is a link to see a thumb index of the papers available. He says you can browse this way. Note that there are papers from Wayne County that suanj found.

I have found many articles about family members and local historical characters here, such as Seward or Harriet Tubman. Also the graphics are fun, like the Webcrawler.

I'm sorry, but I can't help you. First name of my anchestor is Basso. It's very different from LAST name Basso.
Bye

Maybe Gaby can repost this as a new thread so that people can see her post and respond to it.

Good idea

[Lost_in_the_Genealogy]

Suanj found the cemetery and the area where is buried my achestor.
He is in the "Free field" of the main cemetery of Newark. His grave is without stone. So we can't know the exact lot. In the Free field there are 15 persons buried in 1919 without stone. Basso is surely in one of this 15 graves.
Someone knows how can I find the exact grave?

[misbris]

I don't know if this will work for you. When I called a cemetery to check on a gravesite, I was told that many graves have no stone, but the cemetery records there indicate the plot numbers. I was told that some one would take me right to the plot, even though there may be no indication of who is buried there.

I know you are in Italy and can't make a trip to the cemetery, but perhaps you can write, email, or call the cemetery and find out if their records indicate a specific plot number for Basso Petti.
Hope this helps.
